Question: Spreading rate of spilled liquid. Refer to the Chemical Engineering Progress (Jan. 2005) study of the rate at which a spilled volatile liquid will spread across a surface, Exercise 10.24 (p.576). For the data in the LIQUIDSPILL file, let \(y=\) mass of the spill and \(x=\) elapsed time of the spill.

  1. Is there sufficient evidence (at \(\alpha=.05\) ) to indicate that the mass of the spill tends to diminish linearly as time increases?
  2. Give an interval estimate (with 95% confidence) of the decrease in spill mass for each minute of elapsed time.
